Apple Turkey Picadillo

September/October 2007

Your rating: None Average: 4.2 (76 votes)

This twist on the Latin American staple is made healthier with lean ground turkey and crisp apples. It doubles well. Try tucking it into whole-wheat tortillas or serve over instant brown rice for a quick and healthy supper.



READER'S COMMENT:
"Yum. I also grew up with this dish born and raised in California and always loved it spicy and tangy. Add some chopped de-veined jalapeno, finish it with some cilantro and a squirt of lime juice. YUM! "

Good Family Food

This was different than most "burrito-type fillings" and I felt good about serving it since it had more fiber and vitamins. We liked it over brown rice.

Healthy, Taste appeals to kids & adults

Way too much Cider Vinegar

This would have been really good, if there wasn't so much vinegar. Decrease the vinegar to 1 tsp.

Laura: Maybe you could Google "Tzatziki Sauce" and create a version of that. I think you have a good idea there!

We really liked this, although I made a few changes. I used a pound of ground turkey and a can of diced tomatoes instead of the whole tomato. I also had to substitute black olives because I didn't have green. I added a bit more of all of the spices and also added cayenne pepper to spice it up a little more. Delicious!
